It's confusing, but you should never try to re-index a document you retrieved from a searcher, because certain index-time details (eg, whether a field was tokenized) are not preserved in the stored document.
Instead, you should re-build the document yourself, setting the right details per-Field, and then re-index that. Separately, that's the right way to call .updateDocument, but you must ensure FILE_NAME_FIELD was indexed for the first document, with the value "new1.docx". Can you include how you indexed the original document?
